+Long: disable-eprt
+Help: Inhibit using EPRT or LPRT
+Protocols: FTP
+---
+Tell curl to disable the use of the EPRT and LPRT commands when doing active
+FTP transfers. Curl will normally always first attempt to use EPRT, then LPRT
+before using PORT, but with this option, it will use PORT right away. EPRT and
+LPRT are extensions to the original FTP protocol, and may not work on all
+servers, but they enable more functionality in a better way than the
+traditional PORT command.
+
+--eprt can be used to explicitly enable EPRT again and --no-eprt is an alias
+for --disable-eprt.
+
+If the server is accessed using IPv6, this option will have no effect as EPRT
+is necessary then.
+
+Disabling EPRT only changes the active behavior. If you want to switch to
+passive mode you need to not use --ftp-port or force it with --ftp-pasv.
